Planar Wars

The planar wars are a series of conflicts primarily fought between two factions. Both were magical circles that held a great amount of political power and sway in whatever cities they happened to exist. Crowstead was the only city to disallow members from either faction, once sectarian violence started between them. These wars mainly last from 2856 AT and 2890 AT and culminated in the destruction of the old system of magic, the misalignment of Erihan's place in the multiverse, and the complete eradication of all Summoners and Necromancers, with the notable expcetion of the Netharchs of Voltanica.

In 2855 AT, a confederation of magical practitioners of the summoning arts from the city of Rahvinstead (today, Greenharbor) sent a delegation of gifted to the city or Ionica Rush. A human city that today would be located north of the Elven White Tower in what is popularly called the Spell-plague. There the delegation met with local leadership to discuss the exiling of Necromancers and Summoners from the city, to argue for the free practice of magic. Their initial meetings were peaceful, with all sides hearing each other out, but as they stepped outside of the meeting hall they were met of a concentrated mob led by Divine Casters from the Revillators, who assaulted the mages, overwhlemed them with their miracles, and superior numbers, and tore the mages apart there in the streets. Though the government of Ionica Rush offered apologies and incarcerated many of the rabble rousers. They magical world was outraged.

In the city of Malar Nordusk, whose ruins are today located in the center of the Orc lands, a terrorist groups formed with the notion of teaching the Revillators of Ionica Rush a lesson. They infiltrated the city, and opened a gate to the Nine Hells and many souls were dragged to Hell that night. The Revillators, after stopping the assault, swore venegance, and called angels down to to help them with their vengeance. Less than a week later, across the world Revillator cells with their angel allies, beget the Counter-stroke,using the mana of the their awaking human god to smash the magics of Necromancy and Summoning, and tilt Erihan out of the alignment with the planes forever. They did not know this would break magic as it was then known, and so caused the second human apocalypse, as spells went awry across all continents, and sorcerers went mad from glimpsing the unknowable.
